Can we please gut Akali now?

I'm so sick of playing against her. Her only "counterplay" is literally to not let her get ahead. She is by far the most frustrating champion to play against. Unless you CC her until she's completely dead, you're screwed. She'll out sustain any damage you do to her with any sort of DPS. You pink her should, congrats she's still gonna murder your face if you don't have hard CC. You could ignite her, still does a shit ton of damage and blinks your carry, right now about the only thing that works is exhaust and then she just hourglasses the duration and goes back to killing everything.

"This also allows us to reinforce the proper counterplay to Akali (reveal her in stealth and beat her up)" This^ is only helpful if it's not a 1 vs 1 or hell a 2 vs 1 situation.

Akali does well because of her matchups. She used to be a top laner way back when, and though she could heavily snowball from roaming she had difficulty winning lane.

Put a bruiser against her instead of a mage or assassin and watch as she stops being such a large problem.

She's weak at pro level so any problems you have with her can be answered with "L2P".

Akali is fine, and I say this even though my main is countered by her.

Just bring sustaine and silence. Ie. Cho gath.

yeah, you are right but akkali is not pickked in lcs so why nerf her (look at amumu, always on the top of the list when it comes to winrate but lcs does not pick so its fine )

what is specificaly hate about akali is the definition of her playstyle pre 6 you sustain most of the poke and if someone comes too close you outdamage him past 6 you farm champions because your basic kit is so overloaded witth damage that you dont even have to think tthere is no such situation when akali underperforms, and i see ppl noticing that, so they charge mindlessly cause their champion fixes their stupidity (1v4 no problem, they will hop in it and die like idiots but its fine for them )
